Good Food Award."
Beltex Meats Wins 2020 Good Food Award For
Paté Forestier
"This combination of meats and mushrooms provides a rich flavor and
slightly more toothsome texture than your average paté while the brandy
helps to brighten and enhance all of the flavors."
City Weekly - Steeped in Tradition
"It's quite nouveau, with more eye appeal than the typical meat market. But Grubisa believes in traditional ways of butchering and curing meats, beginning with utilizing the entire animal."
"I see the items have labels including ciccioli, hog’s headcheese and cherry-wood-smoked kielbasa. The realization hits me quickly: This is not your ordinary butcher shop."

"Taking lesser-known cuts and turning them into pates, rillettes, confit, cured meats and even bone broth. Of course, Beltex also carries favorites, including house-made sausages, hand-cut steaks, chops and roasts."
Visit Utah - Where's the Meat?
"It’s the place to go for perfect chops, specialty sausages, gorgeous hand-layered terrine, an assortment of rich pâté, bone broth, house-made salami and more."
Utah Business - Meet Your Meat
"The store also offers a variety of classes. “Education is something we pride ourselves on, making people understand that well-raised meat grows right down the road.””
"Inarguably, the best pairings of an Eat Drink SLC event will be, without question, wine and cuts from local Beehive Cheese and Beltex Meats."
SLUG Magazine - From Nose To Tail To Your Kitchen
"Beltex aims to show people an older style of butchery that deals with lesser-known cuts. These cuts are still very tender, can be grilled or braised, but are not being sold in supermarket settings."

"Grubisa gives similar attention to the coppa, aging it four months “like a ham,” then salting, curing and rubbing with smoked paprika and pepper. The result is something “delicate and decadent” and similar to prosciutto."
